Almost Threw This One Away!

I amost tossed this one.Its a 6/8 #13 Filarmonica.I woke this morning on a mission to try and save it.Boy am I glad I didnt toss it.It was covered with rust and had pitting.You can see some minut remnants of pitting in some of the pics.Scales were trash.It had a crack one the blade, about a 1/2" from the heel.I rolled up my sleeves and this is the end product.I dremeled ground out the heel and modified the toe end a bit.I hand sanded from 320 grit to 1000 grit then CR oxide mixed with Mothers on newspaper,and then a quick felt wheel polish.Scales it with some doner scales.Honed her up and gave her a whirl.Great shaver as are all phillies.

Great save! almost looks like one of the folding eastern style razors.

Nice save.

That's an awesome save even if the razor didn't turn out like new. Nice job
